THIS is why Lebron James might choose the SIXERS in free agency 👀
as far as LeBron James on the Sixers I think it makes perfect sense I think it makes perfect sense again LeBron should be looking for a roster where he’s not expected to be the leading scorer I think the Sixers should be looking for a player that can help them on a on a on a very high level but who’s not expected to be the main scorer who’s not a guy that’s going to take the ball out of Tyrese Maxi’s hands per se or or L embiid and can just fit in and really Elevate the players around him and for LeBron I think he could leave he could kind of transition into a different version of himself for the next two or three years if he wants to play that long and really be a more of a point guard Magic Johnson Style LeBron James compared to what he was throughout his whole career and I really do think a roster like the 76ers makes more sense for LeBron than a lot of other teams in the league because you got Joel and you got an emerging Tyrese Maxi and he can just be that 6’7 260lb point guard for a couple of years and Elevate the players around him LeBron has always been a floor raiser you know I mean he took zunis El galus to the NBA finals he Mo Williams was an All-Star Mo Williams who the [ __ ] is Mo Williams bro you know what I mean at 24 years old by the way 22 something crazy um and I I I think it would be it would be really good for the Sixers to have him for a couple years I think it really would be and the the roster in La is not competing for anything in the Western Conference anytime soon there’s at least five teams that are clearly better contenders than the Lakers right now in the West and they don’t really have many assets to make that roster any better so for LeBron to go back to LA that doesn’t even really make any sense I know people are saying they expect them to resign with LA but somebody needs to tell me why how can they improve that roster to make them contenders if he’s only going to play for two more years why would he want to suck again bro they just got swept two years in a row I honestly do not see LeBron James turning to the Lakers it just doesn’t make any sense I see LeBron James retiring before returning to the Lakers you saw how they went out this year and in his postgame press conference he was like it’s just basketball like he doesn’t care anymore because why would he there’s nothing left to care about he might just retire I don’t see him wasting his time going back to a team that everybody knows doesn’t have a chance in the Western Conference do the are the Suns really a team that LeBron would want to go to I don’t know the answer to that either it’s crazy to say but the 76ers I feel like make the most sense I think it could really happen man I really do what do you guys think bro uh wemy is going to put brownie on a poster that’d be cool Lebron sounds like a helicopter Mom I don’t think bronnie wants to play with his dad having him on a Le that’s interesting I would like to hear probably uh Bron’s opinion on the situation you know cuz LeBron could turn into like the Lavar ball of NBA players remember when Lonzo was finally like Dad shut up you know what I mean I’m doing my own thing I’m not wearing a big ball or brand shoes leave me alone let me live my own life LeBron doesn’t want to retire in damn Philly is it about where he wants to retire or is it about wanting to be good for a couple more years because if he doesn’t want if if he would say I’m not going to Philly I don’t want to retire there then why doesn’t he just retire right now I’m asking y’all what is the point of LeBron James going back to the Lakers to get swept again because Anthony Davis can’t carry that team anywhere the only reason he will stay in La is that his wife wants to stay happy [Laughter] wife Aon one bro

The Philadelphia sixers are the hospice care center of the nba league. Look man, Lebron is just going have the team focusing on his son offense taking minutes away from players that could impact the game. He also is a huge narcissist baby he never helds himself accountable and everyone else paid for lebron under performing dlo lonzo ingram kuzma etc. And all the coaches the league has fired for him. We should be focusing on signing a young core of players to pair and build around maxey not joel. Joel is cooked, hes never going to be healthy and he needs to become the second option and stop the stat padding for the mvp race and conserve his health for a play off run. Everyone keeps talking about "Oh what about embiid prime lets not waste another year of embiid!" And to that i say what about maxey we should not be subjecting maxey to the same incompetence from the front office joel been dealing with for what 8-10 years? Is maxey time is time to look and build towards the future instead of focusing on joel. I know some people may not like what i said but idc.
Now let's look at the pros of lebron coming to Philly since I'll be fair also lebron can be for this team what Ben Simmons should've been for us. He still can play can facilitate becoming a point guard or switching to the 4 and 3 if needed. And he can teach tyrese a lot of things and joel too
Problem is like I mentioned before number 1 he'll have the team focus on his son and two he doesn't won't come here at a reasonable price. And I feel like we shouldn't overpay for him.
If he's still a competitor Philly…if he's strictly a mogul LA…
Honestly will Bron be coach or nurse?…
Mo Williams had a soild 3 point shot and he knocked it down it every time he got pass the ball Lebron is not the answer for us
This would really solidify LeBron James career if he was able to come to Philly and helped win a championship
There is no basketball argument you can make against him coming here
LeBron is the best free agent option out there! He distributes, rebounds, a good % from 3! And since possibly only a 2 year contract, will be cheaper on total than George or Butler!
My thoughts on why I think Lebron makes some sense in Philly
1. Realistic chance at another 1-2 rings
2. Publicly endorsed Maxey as a draft steal before his breakout
3. Compliments the expected 2024 roster on paper
4. Could see Bronny maximizing his opportunity in a place like Philly (could still be eaten alive…) vs. somewhere like LA
I think LeBron will get the chance to play even longer because he won't have to do as much for the sixers. Then I would go get Tyus Jones as the back up point guard and a back-up big. Furthermore, I wish the sixers had a legit GM, but the sixers only have a star hunter and not a builder.
I would give Miles Bridges at 26 40 million rather than give Paul George 52 million at 35. The reason is Bridges is for NOW and LATER.
If LeBron opts out sign him for 2 years. I dont understand why some Sixers fans dont want LeBron??? I dont like LeBrons politics but i love him as a basketball player
Quick fixes and old veteran superstars have never worked for the sixers. This is why the process was embraced. Unfortunately the NBA sabotaged the sixers when they tried to implement their plan, but embraced it when okc did the same exact thing for a longer period of time. Also Unfortunately lebron doesnt play defense. He always needs the ball. And he doesn't fill any on court needs other than being lebron james. If you didnt enjoy james harden taking the pace out of the game, you wont enjoy lebron holding the ball for 23 seconds and throwing a last minute pass with one second on the clock. If winning is the objective, Morey has to surround Embiid with athletes that can shoot and play defense as well as make timely shots in the clutch the way Jokic has. Something organic that allows Maxey to get involved imposing his game pace without stagnation. Lebron james doesn't do those things. He uses his teammates to stat pad and we cant have two of those on the same team together. And Maxey just doesnt have the personality yet to override two players trying to get their numbers while he is focused on winning the game.
LeBron isn't interested in going for a ring he just wants to play with his son tbh I can see them both going to Cleveland
Although I don't think LeBron is leaving L.A, but Philly does give LeBron EVERYTHING that he personally said that he wanted from his team and how he wants to play, he's been trying to hand over the keys to the Lakers to A.D for years and A.D keeps misplacing them, and LeBron has said he doesn't want to handle the ball nearly as much as he had too, but he keeps getting forced back into that situation with the seemingly religious disappearance for his point guards, weather it was Westbrook, D-Lo, or even Austin Reaves , they've ALL had MULTIPLE games where they looked like a shell of themselves, LeBron won't have any of those problems playing with Embiid and Maxey, Embiid already has the keys and Maxey is clearly better than ALL of those guards mentioned before at least at this point in all of their careers, BUT, I think he's staying in L.A because that's where his family is, and his son Bryce is making a basketball name for himself right now and graduates in 2025
The
no
I won’t like Le decision ends at Philly
Get that fucking Kuzma will be better
It would work BUT I Dont like it for the Process that we have been building and paying attention to forever. We would only be borrowing him for a year or two to get a chip. IDK it would work but I dont like it for the Game!!
Lebron is not leaving the city of Los Angeles to come to Philadelphia 😂😂😂. All year you guys complain about having these old athletes & we need to get younger yet we should go out & get 40 year old Lebron & I get it it’s Lebron but i am not sure that’s the right move.
Wish he would have chose us instead of LA. We would have 2 CHIPS AT LEAST. We seen him play the point!! Still super fast n jump out the building
LeBron!??! Sixers are desperate
If Lebron can win a championship for the most dysfunctional nba franchise the goat debate is over
We did this years ago.. Lebron is a billionaire and will not leave LA for Philly…..
Sixers is the only place where Bronny has a real chance of winning championship and six man of the year in his first year in the NBA.
Y’all Sixers fans are top notch delusional lmao yall just bounced first round with half the Knicks roster & yall haven’t sniffed a conference championship since AI. Yall swear yall getting everybody lmaoooo just sign 3 good role players & solidify yall roster
Sixers fans do yourself a favor and have a second team. Sixers Ownership and organization don’t care about winning.
If LeBron comes East why choose Philly? I can’t see it.
Signing LeBron would give the 6ers two legitimate shots at winning at tile through 2 years of that contract. If 76ers make good on both years that gives him 6 rings. Of hr we’re to get 5, you really think he wouldn’t be heavily recruiting for number 6? There’s a lot of ifs in this thought process but why wouldn’t you want the best opportunity to win?
